# Vera-AI - Persistent Memory Proxy for Ollama
**Vera** (Latin): *True***True AI Memory**
---
## What is Vera-AI?
Vera-AI is a transparent proxy for Ollama that adds persistent memory using Qdrant vector storage. It sits between your AI client and Ollama, automatically augmenting conversations with relevant context from previous sessions.
**Every conversation is remembered.**

## How It Works

## Quick Start
```bash
# Pull the image
docker pull YOUR_USERNAME/vera-ai:latest
# Create directories
mkdir -p config prompts logs
# Create environment file
cat > .env << EOF
APP_UID=$(id -u)
APP_GID=$(id -g)
TZ=America/Chicago
EOF
# Run
docker run -d \
--name vera-ai \
--env-file .env \
-v ./config/config.toml:/app/config/config.toml:ro \
-v ./prompts:/app/prompts:rw \
-v ./logs:/app/logs:rw \
--network host \
YOUR_USERNAME/vera-ai:latest
# Test
curl http://localhost:11434/
```

## Features
| Feature | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| 🧠 **Persistent Memory** | Conversations stored in Qdrant, retrieved contextually |
| 📅 **Monthly Curation** | Daily + monthly cleanup of raw memories |
| 🔍 **4-Layer Context** | System + semantic + recent + current messages |
| 👤 **Configurable UID/GID** | Match container user to host for permissions |
| 🌍 **Timezone Support** | Scheduler runs in your local timezone |
| 📝 **Debug Logging** | Optional logs written to configurable directory |
---
## Configuration
### Environment Variables
| Variable | Default | Description |
|----------|---------|-------------|
| `APP_UID` | `999` | Container user ID (match your host UID) |
| `APP_GID` | `999` | Container group ID (match your host GID) |
| `TZ` | `UTC` | Container timezone |
| `VERA_CONFIG_DIR` | `/app/config` | Config directory |
| `VERA_PROMPTS_DIR` | `/app/prompts` | Prompts directory |
| `VERA_LOG_DIR` | `/app/logs` | Debug logs directory |
### Required Services
- **Ollama**: LLM inference server
- **Qdrant**: Vector database for memory storage
### Example config.toml
```toml
[general]
ollama_host = "http://YOUR_OLLAMA_IP:11434"
qdrant_host = "http://YOUR_QDRANT_IP:6333"
qdrant_collection = "memories"
embedding_model = "snowflake-arctic-embed2"
debug = false
[layers]
semantic_token_budget = 25000
context_token_budget = 22000
semantic_search_turns = 2
semantic_score_threshold = 0.6
[curator]
run_time = "02:00" # Daily curator
full_run_time = "03:00" # Monthly curator
full_run_day = 1 # Day of month (1st)
curator_model = "gpt-oss:120b"
```
---
## Docker Compose
```yaml
services:
vera-ai:
image: YOUR_USERNAME/vera-ai:latest
container_name: vera-ai
env_file:
- .env
volumes:
- ./config/config.toml:/app/config/config.toml:ro
- ./prompts:/app/prompts:rw
- ./logs:/app/logs:rw
network_mode: "host"
restart: unless-stopped
healthcheck:
test: ["CMD", "python", "-c", "import urllib.request; urllib.request.urlopen('http://localhost:11434/')"]
interval: 30s
timeout: 10s
retries: 3
start_period: 10s
```

## Memory System
### 4-Layer Context
1. **System Prompt** - From `prompts/systemprompt.md`
2. **Semantic Memory** - Curated Q&A retrieved by relevance
3. **Recent Context** - Last N conversation turns
4. **Current Messages** - User/assistant from request
### Curation Schedule
| Schedule | Time | What |
|----------|------|------|
| Daily | 02:00 | Recent 24h raw memories |
| Monthly | 03:00 on 1st | ALL raw memories |
---
## API Endpoints
| Endpoint | Method | Description |
|----------|--------|-------------|
| `/` | `GET` | Health check |
| `/api/chat` | `POST` | Chat completion (with memory) |
| `/api/tags` | `GET` | List models |
| `/curator/run` | `POST` | Trigger curator |
---
## Troubleshooting
### Permission Denied
```bash
# Get your UID/GID
id
# Set in .env
APP_UID=1000
APP_GID=1000
# Rebuild
docker compose build --no-cache
```
### Wrong Timezone
```bash
# Set in .env
TZ=America/Chicago
```
